Answer: 2 2/3

Step-by-step explanation: transform mixed number into improper fraction (-7/3)

turn -5 into fraction (-5/1)

multiply -5/1 by 3 (multiply denominator and numerator) you get this: -15/3

then subtract the numerators

-7/3 - (-15/3) = 8/3

simplify 8/3 to 2 2/3

A data set is summarized in the frequency table below. Using the table, determine the number of values less than or equal to 6.
Nata [24]

Answer:

18

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the above table of the data set, the number of values less than or equal to 6 would be the sum of the frequencies of all values that is equal to or less than 6.

From the table above, we would add up the frequencies of the values of 6 and below, which is:

2 + 3 + 6 + 4 + 3 = 18

Answer = 18

In an arithmetic sequence, a17 = -40 and
Viktor [21]

Answer:

Tn = 2Tn-1 - Tn-2

Step-by-step explanation:

Before we can generate the recursive sequence, we need to find the nth term of the given sequence.

nth term of an AP is given as:

Tn = a+(n-1)d

If a17 = -40

T17 = a+(17-1)d = -40

a+16d = -40 ...(1)

If a28 = -73

T28 = a+(28-1)d = -73

a+27d = -73 ...(2)

Solving both equations simultaneously using elimination method.

Subtracting 1 from 2 we have:

27d - 16d = -73-(-40)

11d = -73+40

11d = -33

d = -3

Substituting d = -3 into 1

a+16(-3) = -40

a - 48 = -40

a = -40+48

a = 8

Given a = 8, d = -3, the nth term of the sequence will be

Tn = 8+(n-1) (-3)

Tn = 8+(-3n+3)

Tn = 8-3n+3

Tn = 11-3n

Given Tn = 11-3n and d = -3

Tn-1 = Tn - d... (3)

Tn-1 = 11-3n +3

Tn-1 = 14-3n

Tn-2 = Tn-2d...(4)

Tn-2 = 11-3n-2(-3)

Tn-2 = 11-3n+6

Tn-2 = 17-3n

From 3, d = Tn - Tn-1

From 4, d = (Tn - Tn-2)/2

Equating both common difference

(Tn - Tn-2)/2 = Tn - Tn-1

Tn - Tn-2 = 2(Tn - Tn-1)

Tn - Tn-2 = 2Tn-2Tn-1

2Tn-Tn = 2Tn-1 - Tn-2

Tn = 2Tn-1 - Tn-2

The recursive formula will be

Tn = 2Tn-1 - Tn-2
